Days 3 and 4

I got through the evening with a warm cloth covering my face. About 10 o'clock that night, when I no longer felt like throwing up, I opted to eat some yogurt. Now I do have SCD homemade yogurt in my fridge, but I can't remember when I made it. I'm certain it's been longer than two weeks - so the probiotics shouldn't be good anymore. It may even be longer than 3 weeks, but it looked okay, and smelled okay - so I chanced it. It tasted glorious. (I didn't like the yogurt when I first tried it, but I have come to find that the honey makes all the difference. When I'm eating something where I can taste the honey I use the good stuff -$$$-, from the health food store. In yogurt I really like the "flavored" honeys. Now they don't have flavor added - that would be illegal. They are named for the blossoms the bees visit to gather the pollen to make their honey. I really like orange blossom honey, especially with a sliced banana in yogurt. Last night I tried my new bottle of raspberry - yum!) Within 15 minutes I felt better than I had all day. I had a second bowl. Food at last!

The third day, my headache was mainly gone when I woke up. Yea! No need to call the doctor on this one. I chose to take it easy and not wear myself out trying to catch up with all the mess just yet.
Breakfast: Hard Boiled Eggs, Grape Juice
Lunch: Leftover chicken
Dinner: Broiled Hamburgers, French Cut Green Beans

Saturday, Day 4 - I woke up with a slight bit of sinus pressure. When will this ever go away? At least I felt stronger than I have all week. After cleaning the kitchen a bit and stirring up some bread to let rise (for everyone else, not me), I made myself a batch of banana pancakes. The recipe is really simple - 1 egg, 1 banana. I mix it in a blender. I also add an extra egg. This actually doesn't stretch the recipe any further, but I think the pancakes might hold together a bit more. I found the trick for me is to keep them small - silver dollar size. That way my spatula can slide completely under a pancake and pick up the entire thing to flip it. I cook my banana pancakes in coconut oil - yum! I get about 12 from one batch.

Breakfast: Banana Pancakes, applesauce
Lunch: Leftover chicken, heated and sprinkled with more Parmesan
Diner: Broiled Steak, Cinnamon Carrots, Stir-Fried Peppers and Mushrooms served over the steak.

So what are Cinnamon Carrots, you ask? Coined carrots, boiled in water. Drain the water. Glob a generous portion of butter on top, then sprinkle some cinnamon, stir until well mixed.

I think I'll have some yogurt for a snack later. Maybe it will take care of this slight headache :o)
